Jody Nichols, Sales Coordinator

The Senior Sales and Education Coordinator is Jody Nichols.  She has been with Eclectic Edibles Catering for six years and handles most of the phone calls and invoicing for the company.  With a master’s in education and the gift of gab, Jody organizes the behind-the-scenes details of most events and tries to keep all balls juggling so the kitchen staff can focus on what they do best. When she is not behind the computer, you can find her hanging out with family, hiking, reading, playing Sudoku, or coaching softball.
